Further developments and improvements and the need for a cheaper mass produced weapon resulted in the introduction of the MP40 in April 1940. From 1940 to 1945, an estimated 1.1 million were produced by Erma Werke.

Most of my items are vintage, and as such are AS-IS, so you must therefore expect a degree of wear due to age and/or usage. Although my passion is the Me109, I do offer many other German Aircraft Fw190, Me262, etc. , as well as USAF and Japanese items.

Occasionally I do offer many non-vintage items such as prints and art relating to the time period. Use is solely based on my authorization only.
